Apricus passes new Solarkeymark heat pipe freeze resistance test

16th March 2014

Apricus heat pipes used in Apricus evacuated tubes solar collectors have passed the new heat pipe freeze resistant testing that is now part of the European Solarkeymark test standard for solar thermal collectors (that use heat pipes).

Extensives research has been completed to ensure that the heat pipes not only resist freezing conditions but also provide the high level of heat transfer and long term reliability that is essential for a solar thermal collector.
